  • type II membrane protein
  • specifically shuttled to and from the nucleus
  • basic FUNCTION
  • inhibiting apoptosis involved in NFKB mediate survival cell and due to FAS or tumor necrosis factor type alpha
  • biomechanically controlled nuclear factor -kappa B target inhibiting cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, counter balancing early hypertrophic responses in activated cardiomyocytes
  • modulates apoptosis, cellular growth, mechanical strain-induced cardiac hypertrophy, and vascular intimal hyperplasia (Kumar 2004)
  • may regulate apoptosis by directly interacting with various proteins involved in the control of apoptotic pathways (Kumar 2004)
  • stress response gene involved in growth control and modulation of apoptosis
  • playing a critical role in regulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species homeostasis (Shen 2006)
  • stress-inducible protein that is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis (Sasada 2008)
  • plays a complex role in the regulation of apoptosis
  • critical role in the NF-kappaB dependent regulation of apoptotic responses
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, antiapoptosis

    protein
  • EPHB2(ERK) substrate having a dual role in EPHB2 signaling by acting both as an EPHB2 downstream effector mediating survival and as a regulator of EPHB2 activation
  • coordinated action of MCL1, IER3, and BCL2L11 controls cell death and survival (new regulatory circuit) (Yoon 2009)
  • interacts with several proteins of which at least four are known to play a role in the regulation of apoptosis (Kumar 2004)
